Massage Therapy
and Neuromuscular Therapeutic Massage

What Can Massage Really Do?

Far beyond simply "feeling good", massage has an impressive range of therapeutic effects and benefits.
With a variety of hands-on methods, a skilled Massage Therapist not only stretches and loosens muscle and connective tissue, but also greatly improves blood flow to the heart and the movement of lymph fluid throughout the body.

The Therapist's hands speed the removal of metabolic waste products, allowing more oxygen and nutrients to reach the cells and tissues.

Sensory receptors in skin and muscles "wake up", bringing new awareness to areas that have felt "cut off" by chronic tension and pain.
In addition, massage can stimulate the release of endorphins-the body's natural painkillers-into the brain and nervous system. All this translates into an amazing number of tangible benefits!
